How It Works
The biggest hurdles when starting a farm or growing your own food is knowing how to do it profitably, having the right tools to work the land, and having access to startup funds. This is why each year the Growing Change Program and coalition of partners give back to 12 farms. Each are chosen by our Selection Partners to receive tools, access to knowledge, consultation, and financial aid.
Our Partners
